It is said that the setting of read receipts is against the human nature of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages.

People want to protect others, and they also want to protect themselves.

Sometimes there will be these text messages even if they are sent, and they don’t want the other party to know that they have seen them, or they don’t want to reply immediately, but the software setting of the mobile phone can respond to the sender immediately after the recipient opens the text message—— Notification that "(receiver) has read".This then puts pressure on people who don't want to reply right away, and have to find ways to avoid the frustrating situation of "read" - like guessing the message after knowing enough information in the "preview" on the lock screen, In this way, there is no need to specifically open the text message; some people will download the message, then turn on the airplane mode of the mobile phone, and then read the message, which can change the "read" to "unread" status.

When I saw Ayanokouji's text message on the horizontal bar display on the screen, I just skipped it and didn't reply.

Either he has an important notification, then he should send the next text message within a reasonable time; otherwise, he can only think that he wrote down my mobile phone number after being borrowed by Kushida today. Just put it in your blacklist.

Today, because of the matter of Mr. Chabashira, the programming work of the over-the-wall software was delayed.In fact, the school's network information settings are equivalent to the current parental monitoring mode.Students' access to the network will be restricted, and the school will monitor and block all LANs that communicate with the outside world.And I had to find a way around these problems.

Now my circumvention software locates me a US IP.

I was testing the code and Y messaged me.

"What is your purpose in coming to this school?"

I looked through the records of his automatic reply chat with me earlier, and found that he quickly discovered my chat settings and conducted various keyword tests on it.You can see a few sentences that don't answer the question, but the other party is still working hard to contact me.

Sensing that the other person is someone who also wants to chat with other people, I turn my attention to the dialog box, look at "myself" and ask "What about you?"

And I often set the form of rhetorical questions.And this "what about you" that retains a personal attitude appears most frequently in historical records.

The key to touch is that the other party has a question and "what".

"I wanted to know what true equality and strength really are, so I came to this school."

"Speaking of equality, there is an original English version of Jacques Rousseau's "On the Origin and Foundation of Human Inequality" on the second floor of the school library."

……

Is my setup a bit like Siri, I suddenly thought.

I don't think I can talk to a person like Y whose ideological realm transcends his own reality and reaches the philosophical level.It's as if someone asked me in front of me what the end of the world is, and I have no interest in it.

What about the end of the world, what does it have to do with me?

I thought about it, and added a sentence after the automatic reply, even though it seemed a little inconsistent with the words I set, but I didn't set the function to withdraw the text message.

I typed and said, "Do you think you'll find these answers if you study here?"

"I'm thinking, maybe witnessing through my eyes, communicating through my mouth, and touching with my hands, the answer will slowly form in my brain."

……

Is this guy a spiritualist?

It feels very troublesome. I can somewhat understand the tiredness of science students who have to communicate with liberal arts students in a different world.

I'm not Y's type of person.

Therefore, it is impossible to learn Y's accent to cooperate with chatting.

"Then I wish you success." I thought about ending this topic.

Y said, "What about you? Why are you here?"

"Free tuition, a life without worrying about food and clothing, that's all." I replied.

After all, I don't have to be honest with Y.

"If your studies are too poor, there will inevitably be a risk of dropping out of school."

When Y answered this way, I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional. Anyway, it happened to be close to my situation, and I felt a little taken aback.However, this feeling didn't last long, and the other party sent a message to continue saying——

"However, a top student like you shouldn't worry about grades."

"Well, good days always come to an end."

When I saw this sentence was sent, it showed "read", but Y did not continue to reply.Maybe it's because I'm busy, maybe it's because I don't know how to reply.

I thought about it for a long time, but I still haven't put Y in the blacklist.

Even if I feel that the other party may be suspected of spying on me;

Even if there is a big difference in the field of communication between the other party and oneself;

Even I can't tell the truth to Y.

Such people seem worthless to stay.

But, maybe it will be used in the future?

In fact, I think it is not difficult to find out who Y is, but when I think of someone who will never interact with me by my side, who is just talking, and I can occasionally express my sincerity, I think maybe it’s okay not to give up.

The next day, when I was about to go downstairs from the elevator, I happened to meet Kushida, and the two went to the classroom together.Kushida snickered as he held my arm, and I asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?"

Kushida leaned into my ear and said, "You know what? Ayanokōji-san, he..."

Before Kushida finished speaking, the elevator opened on the fourth floor, and I met eyes with the brown-haired boy Kushida mentioned.

The first-year dormitory buildings are divided into high floors and low floors.

The upper floors are individual dormitories for girls, while the lower floors are for boys.So it is not surprising that you will meet boys in the elevator.

I was watching him standing outside the elevator door, and I felt a little uncomfortable seeing his eyes still haven't moved away from my face.Generally speaking, shouldn't you make eye contact with someone you are close to first?Even if he opened the elevator, he should immediately shift his gaze to Kushida.He looked at me for four or five seconds, and then looked at Kushida after seeing my eyes flash.

And Kushida seemed to be stimulated by the scene in front of him, and continued even more excitedly: "...Ayanokōji-san seems to like you..."

Her voice, completely engulfed in air, was very faint, but I heard it without missing a word.

Originally, Kushida wanted to greet the hesitant Ayanokouji to enter the elevator, but I pressed the door of the elevator to close the door before her, and locked Ayanokouji out of the elevator.
